Official Jon Gruden thread 32.

[5FingerVolPunch]

I know these Gruden threads are very entertaining but based on what skeeter posted earlier, we might as well forget about Gruden.

So do we ignore AV, Matts, ChattaVol, Swan Man, and countless others because of what Skeeter said?

This.

Thanks

I'm going to bed.
Nothing to see here but the weekly Saturday night Gruden thread purging.
I'll see those of you who survive in the morning.

Interwebz is a powerful tool, if used wisely.

at this point, the least that currie owes us is a statement. on anything football related

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

What did he post I missed that? I'm at work couldn't keep up. Thanks.

He said that nobody in the AD has even mentioned Gruden's name at all. Currie has been resisting oressure from boosters to fire Butch.

 

[RockyTopJewel]

Dooley did his when he was fired. No bearing on anything fwiw

Just passing the word along lol. Thank you for that info, I did not know. I can still hold out hope :thumbsup:

I agree. Just give us something. We're about to bleed out at this point.

I want Gruden first..and not just because I think he is a brilliant coach. He is not even a coach, he is a cult of personality at this point. I want excitement back to UT football and I think he would bring it. There are absolutely other options that would be a massive step up from Butch.

Agreed

I know I am. I hope skeeter is wrong. But I get the feeling he is spot on.

Dude... there’s some great things to be said about communication.

Using an NFL qb as your example is not one haha. And... communication is far from the top of best majors for the current market. Of course, it’s beats the crap out of majoring in classics or art. But cmon man... communication is your corner of the academic world. Don’t go pretending otherwise.

I actually take great offense to this. Communications is actually one of the smartest majors you can have. Number one skill set employers want in graduates- good oral and written communication skills. The job opportunities are endless.

I parlayed it into a career in finance. Worked my way to being a manager at Bank of America, then as an investment banker with Wells Fargo.

Now I teach in a top 10 business school at UW- Madison and can guarantee you the income we make is significantly higher than 75% of all income earners in the U.S.

Don’t believe me, salaries for state employees at UT is public record

List of employees statewide for the University of Tennessee, 2017

And TN is one of the worst paying institutions. There’s a reason I’m in the cold and snow.

Butch is schitso when it comes to Bituli. If a runner breaks a big run without him in the game, the next substitution he is in. Why the f*** isn't he always in!

Nope, not shook.

I’m clinging on as well.

If he’s not gone tomorrow, currie’s got some real issues.

I agree if they dare trot out Butch Monday like everything's just fine so help us. I would like to know what is being said on TOS now regarding this rumored meeting with Tampa. And how far along we really are with Gruden if it's no where near what we thought...

 

[5FingerVolPunch]

I know I am. I hope skeeter is wrong. But I get the feeling he is spot on.

There have been a whole lot of people say he doesn't even work for UT anymore and someone popped in and looked up his last post and said it was from months ago and he said he wasn't connected anymore. So TIFWIW like every other "insider" on here.

 

[Volstylexx]

Not only did I get to meet him, but I still have the plaque hanging in my room

Very cool. Congrats Dude.

 

[Volzonya]

Maybe not. One more week of Butch and I might be though.

One more week of botch and I will be fired and lose my obligatory stripper with an 8 ball in her belly button.

Yeah I haven't seen anybody say what TOS is saying since the loss.
If Butch coaches the LSU game the stadium will be all purple and gold. It's going to be a very bad look. I don't know anyone who will go to that game after what happened tonight.

Y'all have a good night hopefully soon!

Gruden will fix all. 8 ball strippers for everyone.

 

[Grand Vol]

The posts haven't been impressive. I wouldn't waste your time going back and reading. Only thing worth reading is DTO saying there is a snag with Gruden. Then saying he may be meeting with TB next week.

Don't like the sound of that.

I’m very much aware of employment stats and income figures.

Agree to disagree:hi:

Back to gruden

I don't like the sound of kittens being dragged down chalk boards, but I still do it.
